Persimmon Orange Daylily

Hemerocallis ‘Bertie Ferris’ is a compact daylily with grassy foliage and branching stems of persimmon-orange flowers with loosely ruffled petals. Exact-cultivar profiles describe a height of about 18–20 inches, a spread near 18–23 inches, and flowering from late spring into summer, with repeat bloom possible ([Perennials.com](https://www.perennials.com/plants/hemerocallis-bertie-ferris.html), [Blooming Designs](https://www.bloomindesigns.com/Hemerocallis-bertie-ferris-25-plants/)). ## Garden use The miniature flowers and modest clump size work well along a sunny border, in a container, or near the front of a perennial bed. Orange and apricot tones pair easily with purple, blue, and cream flowers. ## Growing conditions Provide full sun or partial shade and ordinary garden soil; exact-cultivar references list clay and sandy soils as suitable. Keep new plantings watered while they establish, then maintain steady moisture during active spring and summer growth. ## Maintenance Remove finished flowers and cut back spent scapes. Trim old foliage in late fall. Divide clumps in spring or fall if they become crowded or flower less freely.
